Having fun with the intercooler an rad
Installing thought we'd sorted the intercooler pipes out last night but never took the rad into account so had to change things about picking a smaller rad up tomorrow so hope that small enough so to get the intercooler pipes round the rad at the battery side while clearing the supercharger boost return my alarm arrived today going try fit that Moro
